Samuel gets volume boost vs. Cardinals with injuries decimating SF WRs.

Samuel is averaging 2.19 yards per route run, leading all 49ers wide receivers in target share and running the second-most routes on the team. San Francisco's pass-catchers are injury-plagued; Demarcus Robinson injured his ankle and will likely miss Week 3, and Mike Evans has a hip injury. Samuel runs a large portion of his routes in the shallow part of the field where his yards-after-catch ability remains superb. Facing Arizona, which allows the sixth-most fantasy points to wide receivers, Samuel could see even more volume and should be fired up as a FLEX with WR2 upside.
